I wanted us to draft him and I was WRONG. We have at least 4 guys who are better players than him right now. No need to spend the money or roster space when we could use it for depth at bigger need positions.

And a bit of a note: Several scouts on various radio shows have mentioned that they don't think he is overweight. Rather he is at his normal playing weight and he is just a big thick guy. Supposedly many scouts felt he had (over)shed a lot of weight prior to the draft to look skinnier and be a little faster even though it was not a permamnet weight loss. To paraphrase. "He ain't fat, he's big boned."
